Attività e turni
As a Farm Volunteer, your work schedule will be flexible, allowing you to balance meaningful contributions to the farm with the opportunity to explore the stunning Kilimanjaro region. Here's a breakdown of your typical daily activities:
Working Hours:
- Work Schedule: Volunteers will work for 1-3 hours in the morning only, helping with tasks on the farm. You’ll be finished by midday, leaving you with plenty of time for exploration and relaxation.
- Days of Work: Volunteers will work for 4 days per week, allowing you ample free time to enjoy the beauty of Moshi and Kilimanjaro.
Typical Morning Activities:
- Crop Maintenance: Assist in planting, watering, and caring for crops such as vegetables, fruits, and herbs.

- Harvesting: Participate in harvesting fresh produce, learning about the seasonal crops and how they grow.
- Farm Organization: Assist with farm organization tasks, such as cleaning tools, maintaining equipment, or helping with small repairs.
Free Time:
After your morning shift, you will have the rest of the day off to relax and explore the area. We encourage you to take advantage of the opportunity to discover the hidden gems of Moshi and the Kilimanjaro region. You can visit waterfalls, explore nearby villages, or take a tour to the base of Mount Kilimanjaro itself. This balance of work and exploration makes the experience both fulfilling and enriching.
This schedule ensures that you have time to connect with the local community, immerse yourself in the environment, and enjoy the cultural and natural beauty of the region, while still contributing meaningfully to sustainable farming practices.
Regole
1. Punctuality & Commitment: Volunteers are expected to arrive on time for daily activities and commit to the agreed-upon duration of their stay. Consistency is key to maintaining the farm's daily operations.
2. Respect for Local Culture: Our farm is located in a culturally rich area, and we ask all volunteers to be respectful of local customs and traditions. Take the time to learn about the Chagga and Maasai community and their way of life.
3. Safety First: Safety is a top priority. Volunteers must follow safety protocols when using farm tools, working with plants, and interacting with livestock. Always wear appropriate clothing (sturdy shoes, gloves) and protective gear. We do have Public liability insurance cover all volunteer activities and tours!
4. Team Spirit: This is a communal project, and volunteers are encouraged to collaborate, share ideas, and support one another. A positive attitude and willingness to help others are essential.
5. Environmental Responsibility: Our farm promotes sustainability, so please ensure you respect our eco-friendly practices. Avoid wasting water, dispose of waste properly, and contribute to maintaining the cleanliness of the farm.
6. Personal Responsibility: Volunteers are responsible for their own personal hygiene and maintaining cleanliness in shared spaces, including the kitchen and bathrooms. We encourage eco-friendly practices, such as using biodegradable soaps and minimizing plastic use.
7. Communication: If you encounter any issues or concerns, please communicate them to the farm coordinator promptly. We value open, honest communication to ensure a harmonious experience for everyone!
